Porkbusted [Stephen Spruiell]
Today on the homepage, I write about the latest unfortunates to find themselves in the Porkbusters' bullseye: Harry Reid and Dick Durbin. And the fun is just getting started. Tom Coburn has officially filed an amendment to the Senate ethics bill that prohibits senators from requesting earmarks that financially benefit them, their family or any family members of their staff. As Robert Novak wrote yesterday, Coburn is calling it the "Reid Amendment," because Reid has four sons and a son-in-law who are lobbyists.
